zim/modules/pacman/README.md
Eric Nielsen 5b90c96cd1 Update modules' README.md
Stick with the following style:

* Header 1 with the module name is in `lowercase`.
* Other headers are in `Sentence case`. Common header names that should
  be consistently used are `Aliases`, `Contributing`, `Functions`,
  `Settings`, and `Zsh options`.
* The names `Zim` and `Zsh` always appear capitalized, even in the
  middle of sentences.
* Prefer

      print 'code indented with 4 spaces'

  instead of
  ```zsh
  print 'code fenced by lines with three back-ticks'
  print 'unless you want syntax highlighting'
  ```
